Is it correct to assume that when one hits a cue ball with side spin that it actually slides on its forward motion and does not "roll" forward. I would assume that the side spin acts like a gyroscope and prevents forward roll. If the ball does eventually roll forward as opposed to slide then the side spin must be off the ball.
Is this a correct assumption?
Just trying to understand cue ball dynamics.
Thanks
